Inspired by the Couture Tie & Dye, YSL nail lacquer plays colour in gradation effect just like a sophisticated total look. The coloured base is covered by a "pop coat" for a sugary glossy result. Top Coat can also be used alone for a “sheer” glittery result on the nails.

Nanci E. L:Can't send pic-Haven't used this yet.When this arrived it was emulsified to all one rose color then settled into layers-gimmicky-I don't have high hopes and would not purchase again.Mar 25, 2013

Beverly S:I really don't know how this is supposed to work. I purchased it with the thought that it would give me the "ombre" look but when I applied it ....I found out it just gave a pearly colored top coat look.....maybe I am not doing it right. Got to find out the next time I am at the YSL counter. I hope I answered your question.Apr 4, 2013

Jenny B:That's what it is--a shimmery top coat. It's a different visual effect. Think of it like a seperated indie polish, that you have to shake up to use. It is not meant to create a tie dyed/marbled look--but a sugary, shimmery, opalescent appearance.Apr 4, 2013

Denise P:I purchased hip coat. I think the name tie dye is misleading. I would name it cellophane. It is a sheer glow of color. I think it is great for summer because it is so clean, fresh and unique. Many years ago another French cosmetic company had something similar, I wore it constantly. To see a return to this concept really made me happy. I'm bored with grey, easter egg colored nails.'this is something you won't see coming and going. A great summer splurge.May 20, 2013

Jolene G:No, I would definitely not purchase this product again. I followed the directions given and could not achieve anything anywhere close to the described result. I then emailed the website with questions because I really was still hoping the polish would work. After receiving absolutely no reply from customer service, I ended up returning both bottles. Buyer beware!May 20, 2013
